I'm back, literally , after i break a few weeks ago and bored with english, i start again for today. Sometimes you need rest and also refresh from english lesson.
Greg you are my idol! Since I discovered you here on RUclips every night I fall asleep with your videos and every morning I wake up happy to have learned something. I love your way of teaching! Thanks for everything you do for us!
I'm certainly not to the point of getting "advanced English level“ but it's very interseting even for a "French internet user". Thanks for what you're doing!
I started using "How's things?" with my friends several years ago, and noone seemed to be confused. I am German and have few friends from Ireland, GB and Scotland.
In the same way you say "ayup", in my town we sometimes ay "¡opa!" instead of "hola". I'm from Ferrol, in the northwest of Spain. I really enjoy your lessons, Greg.
If you want to sound chill and cool you can also say " What's poppin' " I usually say this if I talk with my friends, but in general with everyone I wouldn't recommend it.
I agree with you. It seems more common in the States to use How "s it going, What' s up, Hey and etc (words including more personal terms) instead. However, ^How are you?^ is occasionally used for a somewhat formal relationship; then the answer goes ^I'm fine, thanks^, which I' ve found awakward as you explained.
Why? Why don't you like 'how are you'. J love it! Do you prefer to say 'hi'? Perhaps hi is more friendly, but it is too fast and cold. When we'll leave, on the contrary, we'll say 'bye': it is fast, cold, definitive, cool.
It would be awesome if my English teachers have taught me it. Yes: I studied in the two most famous English courses we have in Brazil. Not one even came close to your tips! Cheers from Brazil!
I just chanced upon this video today and instantly fell in love with your accent. It sounded vaguely familiar to my Indian ears. There is something delightful about the way you speak and I was trying to find out why it should be so since I have never been out of India. My exposure to native speech is minimal. The mystery was finally solved when you said you are a Yorkshire man. Geoffrey Boycott. That is the link. We loved him in India as a cricket commentator though we hated him on the pitch. He loved Indian pitches so much that the only way to get him out of it was to pull his stumps out. The meanest run gatherer ever! Off the pitch, he loved everything Indian. That accent of yours will get you lots of fans in India as we understood every word of Boycott's so carefully articulated like the runs he made.
I do use the examples you gave, but it depends on the situation, or the the person you are saluting. For example to my son, his friends or the kid at the coffee shop I will use them. But I personally think they are not appropriate in more professional environment, or when you meet someone for a job interview.
Actually "how's it hanging" can be inappropriate. In Australia young men may use it to casually greet male friends but also naughtily referring to the anatomy below.
I'm not even australian, im indonesian, and hows it hanging was soooooo down there, i was like mine hanging very well, still attach and work like it should 😂

Hi Greg, thanks for the useful content. 👍 Want to ask about phrase "Yourself?". I've been surprised when heard this first time. What are your thoughts about it? Is that common for British people?
1. How've you been? 2. How are you doing? 3. How's it going? 4. How's it hanging? (informal) 5. How are things? 6. How's tricks? (informal) 7. Long time no see 8. What's up? (AmE) 9. Alright? (informal) 10. Ayup! (North British, Yorkshire)
Good and very helpful video, but I would suggest not using "stop saying" in the titles, as they give the impression that the words or expression are wrong and shouldn't be used. And that is not the case, they are all perfectly good and used all the time by native speakers! Yes, there are alternative ways of saying things, that can enrich a person's vocabulary. But the original word or expression is fine too, so please stop saying, "stop saying"!
This. Funny how they say that there's no problem in having your own accent and not sounding like a native, but at the same time they tell you to stop using perfectly correct words and expressions to sound more like one.
hi ... I've been studying a 16the century English essay writer sir Francis Bacon... make a video on the differences of his time writing or vocabulary plus grammer and today's too... because whenever I go through his words I get too much puzzled 🤗🤔
Hello professor Thank you so much for your priceless advice and interesting guidance. I really appreciate your job. I wish you peace and happiness under the sky of prosperity.
Thank you!
I am from Russia and I learn english and you help me very well!
Who else is watching these videos not for English but instead for the strikingly captivating beautiful eyes of this gentleman? 😃👀

Hi Greg, thanks for the useful content. 👍
Want to ask about phrase "Yourself?". I've been surprised when heard this first time.
What are your thoughts about it? Is that common for British people?
Why Perfect here? When the second part of the phrase just Past Simple?!
1. How've you been?
2. How are you doing?
3. How's it going?
4. How's it hanging? (informal)
5. How are things?
6. How's tricks? (informal)
7. Long time no see
8. What's up? (AmE)
9. Alright? (informal)
10. Ayup! (North British, Yorkshire)
First one should be, how have you been/how've you been.
@@rubyrose49 Thank you:) edited
How about you ..so how you been
Thank you ..it is awesome 😎👍
Thanks 🙏
Fantastic!
Thanks Greg!
Ay Up? That's a new one for me, and I've been living in the UK for 16 years. It's always something new to learn 🙂
So surprised to learn the expressions. Thanks Prof. Looking forward to watching other videos
Simon , in "Britain's Got Talent" once answered "Fine, and you"? to a contestant during the show. So, is it ok or not? Thanks
Thanks Greg, loved this lesson!
Glad you enjoyed it! 😀
Howdy? is my fave one although American English. The next one is Alright? and How am ya? Greetings from Serbia
Does the meaning are the same to how are you?
I think those are use in a particular situation
That's it, Ayup! Is my thing now
Hi sir ! Your pronunciation is very understandable I apppreciate it

Hi Greg!
I adore your lessons. My question is: can I ask someone: "All alright?" -instead of "How are you"?
Greetings & all the best!
“Everything alright?” is a more common way of asking that 🙂

@@matheusmelo5769 Agree with you, they shouldn't do that. These are words and expressions that are used all the time!
Ayups thanks sir.
